and the Royal Lancashire horse shows in

ALABABA.
Entered as standard trotter by Wilbur F.
Smith, is brown FLY, 2 years old, of Sui
tan, dam Cora, by Buccaneer. She is hand
some as picture, was broken when a
yearling, and gives promise OF great speed.
AMONG THE RoADsTRRs
We noticed two PAGERS, Fred Ackerman
and Solitaire, owned and entered by C. H.
Gilman, proprietor of the Red House The
former is s years old, sired by Washington,
and has record OF 2:23. He is bright
bay, of handsome carriage, and while per-
haps little too ambitious for track horse,
on the road he is all that could be desired,
and can be driven with safety by lady.
The latter is a black mare, 5 years old,
sired by Singleton, dam by Signal, gentle
as kitten, handsome beyond description,
and is to-day without question, for beauty
good temper, and speed, one of the finest
roadster mares in the United States.
FALLS,
Entered as a standard trotter by f. P
Lowell, is an Electioneer stallion. nine
years old, dam Felicia by Messenger Duroc.
His breeding is par excellence he being one
of the best trotting- bred animals in the
world. In fact he knows nothing but trot
and has the smooth. graceful action that
carries the Electioneer family so fast. For
trotter he is very large, is built on hand
some lines, and no matter whether on the
road or the track his temper is perfect.
THEo. sKELLMAN,
OF Petaluma, proprietor of the Magnolia
Stock Farm, shows five stations of his own
importation from France, three being Nor
man Draft, and two French Coach. AS
this exhibit represents perhaps the finest
stud of Norman horses in the new world
We deem it of sufficient importance to
make it the subject OF special article for
to-morrow's edition.
MODERN MADE VEHICLES.
A. Meister, carriage manufacturer, 910 to
9l4 Ninth street, opposite the plaza, makes
fine showing of the products of his fac
tory in the west wing of the Pavilion.
The exhibit consists of ladies' phaetons,
open and top buggies, pleasure carts, spring
market-wagons, and family carriage,
which in its manner of construction com
bines all the advantages of modern made
vehicle. Visitors will notice that the way
| ii which this carriage is made gives extra
| room between the seats The box is very
low, making 1t convenient for ladies or
children to pass in and out. We desire to
say another word about this home enter
prise. All the work, from beginning to
end, in the making of carriage or buggy
is done by first-class mechanics, the best of
material only being used. In Mr.. Meister's
display is an open side-bar buggy, IN
painted, showing the quality of material
and makeup in its natural condition.
